    Always upset that #6 is “quiche” and not “pie” which is obviously the broader category

      But a pie should have a lid. If anything #7 should be pie rather than calzome.

          I feel like there are more kinds of pies without lids than ones with them anyway.

            But then that would make a covered pie a calzone! And a hot dog a taco! And soup a salad! And an omelette a salad! And ice cream a sala- wait… I think this system is growing on me…

          And even with a lid, it isn’t quite #7.

          #7 is for things where there’s basically no distinction between the top and bottom. Even pies with a crust on top has a distinct “top” side, whereas the sides and bottoms are all pie crust.

          #7 is for calzones, corn dogs, burritos, dumplings, pot stickers, ravioli, etc.

        A closed top pie form is called a galette.

        The open top form is pie.

      A slice of apple pie is a taco. A slice of pumpkin pie is toast. A whole apple pie is a calzone, a whole pumpkin pie is a quiche. See how silly you sound?

      Calling a pie a quiche would upset more people. Thus quiche.

      I think a pie should have an upper crust, so it’s more of a tart. Of course, tons of common food names break this convention so maybe quiche is fine anyways

    The “sushi” should be “burrito”. That’s just one type of sushi, because what I picture when I hear “sushi” would probably be in the “toast” category (if rice counts as the “bread”)

      This is what it comes from, and this meme is a poor cut of the rules and logic, probably for space reasons.

      A salad with croutons is nachos.
